In early May, the man entered a Southern California grocery store wearing the offensive headdress.
The man told authorities the hood was not intended as a racial statement. He said he was frustrated with being told what he could and could not do because of the coronavirus pandemic.
Authorities determined there was not enough evidence to charge him with a crime.
